So That the People May Know
There were nn even twenty-four hundred Individuals, firms nnd corporations delinquent In
their taxes for the yonr (1917) when the county treasurer's books were closed on December 1st
last Saturday week the time for making up the list for publication. The News-Advocate
prints the list and will collect from the county four hundred and thirty ($430.00) dollars, having
been awarded the contract by the votes of Commissioners Hamilton nnd Bryncr at eighteen (18)
cents a description as against The Sun's bid of twelve and a half (121A) cents n description. Had
The Sun been given the publication at its bid of twelve and a half cents as against the News-Advocate's
eighteen cents, Carbon county would have been saved a bundled and thirty ($130.00)
dollars. The Sun's total would have been three hundred ($.'100.00) dollars, whereas the News-Ad-ocatc
is receiving four hundred and thirty ($130.00) dollars.
In other words, a hundred nnd thirty dollars of the money of the taxpayers of Carbon coun
ty is donated to a publication which advertises Commissioner Hamilton's wife (Mrs.AV. T. Ham
ilton) as tho owner of 1 per cent or more of the capital stock of the News-Advocate. It may
be that Commissioner Bryner also is interested financially in the publication. Such, however,
would be no surprise since some institutions in which he has money invested are known to be gat
ing the lion's shure of business in their line from Carbon county. At any rate the News-Advocate
is an ever ready defender of nnd apologist for Bryncr nnd Hamilton nnd their rotten admin
stratum of county affairs, and this may be its way of making good for favoritism shown it in the
matter of public printing.
If such favoritism and grots waste of money is practiced in the smnll item of printing and
publishing compared with other expenditures under Hamilton und Bryncr as a majority of the
board of county commissioners, what arc they doing in bridges nnd road contract, for instance,
and other matters where thousands of dollars arc annually involved? Every day, almost, tilncc
they hnvo been in office the law as to roads, bridges and repair work has been wantonly
violated. How long arc the taxpayers to put up with it?
